Nichicon Design Kits for Micro/Mini Inverters

The Nichicon High Voltage Design Kits were developed to offer multiple component options to engineers looking to meet design needs in the Micro/Mini Inverter market. The primary components included in the Design Kits from Nichicon are the UPW and UCS Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors which are currently being utilized in applications such as micro/mini inverters. The UPW and UCS Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors
have higher voltages (350V, 400V, and 450V) that are typically needed
in energy harvesting applications, such as solar and wind. Each Design Kit includes one voltage group per series with 120-160 parts per kit and 6-9 values each for a total of 3 kits per series.

FEATURES

Targeted at the Micro/Mini Inverter market

Contain UCS and UPW Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

One kit per voltage group per series (350V, 400V, and 450V) for a total of 3 kits per series

Nichicon's UCS Series Capacitor Design Kits include UCS Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors currently used in Micro/Mini Inverters. Each UCS Series Capacitor Design Kit from Nichicon contains one voltage group of part numbers for a total of 3 kits for the series (350V, 400V, and 450V). The UCS Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors
offer higher voltages that are typically more suitable for energy
harvesting applications, such as solar and wind.

Features of the UCS Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors included in the Design Kits
are miniature size, high ripple current, high reliability, long load
life of 8000 to 10,000 hours at 105ºC, capacitance range of 6.8 to
330µF, voltage range of 160 to 450V, and compliance to RoHS directive
2002/95/EC.

Nichicon's UPW Series Capacitor Design Kits include UPW Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors currently being used in Micro/Mini Inverters. Each UPW Series Capacitor Design Kit from Nichicon includes one voltage group of part numbers for a total of 3 kits (350V, 400V, and 450V). The UPW Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors
offer higher voltages that are typically more suitable for energy
harvesting applications, such as solar and wind.

Features of the UPW Series Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors included in the Design Kits are
capacitance range of 0.47 to 15,000µF, voltage range of 6.3 to 450V,
miniature size, low impedance, long life of 2,000 to 8,000 hours, and high reliability for switching power
supplies.
